Joining Lee as Co-Offensive Player of the Week is Maryland QB Chris Turner. Turner showed impressive poise after entering the game for an injured Jordan Steffy late in the first half against No. 10 Rutgers on Saturday. Turner completed 14 of 20 pass attempts for 149 yards, directing four scoring drives and leading the Terrapins back from an 11 point deficit at the half. The 34-24 win gave Maryland its first win over a top 10 team since 2004.
